Music Jukebox
About Jukebox
There are two methods to use Jukebox:
connecting the USB device or copying audio
tracks to the HDD.
When using Jukebox, you can do following:
• Store audio tracks on the HDD.
• Play audio tracks using various play
modes.
• Label tracks, albums, or artists.
• Create a Playlist.
Notes on copying
• You cannot copy audio tracks on the HDD to
discs or USB devices.
• Some audio tracks may not be copied depending
on the file size.
• An artist name, album name, and MP3 audio
track name are copied, and albums and MP3
tracks are stored in each artist folder. However,
albums and MP3 audio tracks are stored in the
“Unknown” folder when their artist name cannot
be copied.
• Audio tracks from a CD are stored in the artist
folder labelled “Unknown.” Names are
automatically labelled; “A_*****_F_*****” for
album, “A_*****_F_*****_T_*****” for
audio tracks.
• When copying is stopped partway, tracks that
have finished copying before you stop will
remain copied onto the HDD as an album.
You can check which albums have been copied
in the Music Jukebox list (page 80).
• No other operations are available when copying
audio tracks.
• While copying audio tracks, timer recordings are
unavailable. If the timer is set during copying,
the recorder starts the timer recording after
copying is finished.
• Copy-protected CDs cannot be copied to the
HDD.
